From C.A.V.E. Gallery:

“Going Places” features an exciting new series of work by Gosha Levochkin, that stems from an exploration of and reaction to the artist’s urban environment. Gosha focuses on the effects of time and use on buildings and structures, and depicts how this wear and tear contributes to their city’s unique history and character.

Gosha’s work is inspired by his personal exploration and the inherent need to wander, roam, explore and search for somewhere new. He is intrigued with how people live their daily lives in urban density and clutter and somehow make it all work. Gosha imagines how each city dweller has a personal view of their surroundings visualized in their minds. He brings these images to life in his artwork, through playful yet thought – provoking compositions.

The exhibition is comprised of a series of bold ink drawings complemented with a bright watercolor and gouache palette. Gosha’s impressive new body of work captures visions of an urban apocalypse, stylistically expressed with an underlying humor, in a compelling and captivating way.

Yo! Venice! was started by two friends, Keri and Bret, to create a communal blog for residents of Venice Beach California.
In today’s world of RSS feeds, they felt that a blog would be a perfect place for people to let others know how they view the Venice Beach community through words and pictures. It is hoped that this site will become a communal blog with many people submitting stories for all in the community to share.
